Abstract

Arachnoid collapse is a previously unreported complication of endoscopic choroid plexus coagulation (ECPC) treatment of hydranencephaly and is demonstrated in this case report. The variable anatomy found in hydranencephaly supports the use of ECPC as the preferred treatment option. However, the same anatomical anomalies predispose the procedure to this unique complication. A brief literature review of hydranencephaly has also been performed and is reported through the discussion. Neurosurgeons must be aware of this very dangerous complication and a discussion of preventative measures are made. The use of ECPC and the clinical expectations of treating patients with hydranencephaly is also discussed.

Özet

Araknoid kolaps, hidrosefalinin endoskopik koroid pleksus koagülasyonu (ECPC) ile tedavisinin daha önce bildirilmemiş bir komplikasyonudur ve bu olgu raporunda bildirilmektedir. Hidranensefalideki değişken anatomi, tercih edilen tedavi seçeneği olarak ECPC kullanımını desteklemektedir. Ancak aynı anatomik anomaliler işlem sırasında sözkonusu komplikasyon açısından bir yatkınlık oluşturmaktadır. Hidranensefali için kısa bir literatür derlemesi yapılmıştır ve tartışmada verilmektedir. Beyin ve sinir cerrahlarının bu çok tehlikeli komplikasyondan haberdar olması gerekir ve önlemler tartışılmıştır. Hidranensefali hastaların tedavisinde ECPC kullanımı ve klinik beklentiler de açıklanmaktadır.
